Picked up one of the Pegasus Apollo 27 Spacecraft at the LHS yesterday.  Don't know exactly what I'm going to do with it.  How much WHIFFING can I do to something that's already a WHIF?

A nice treat today.  A few weeks ago I placed an order with the nice Hannant's people, and because of a busy few weeks at work and getting ready for a trip to England next week, I forgot all about it!  So today I got a box and had no idea what was in it!  Kinda like Christmas coming early   :party: .

So, inside the box:

Hase 1/72 F-104 'Red Baron'
Hase 1/72 AV-8B+
RoG 1/72 Jaguar GR.1A
RoG 1/72 Kamov KA-52 'Alligator'

Xtradecal 1/48 TSR.2 What-If Parts 1 & 2
Xtradecal 1/48 RN Buccaneer S.2
Model Alliance 1/72 Ark Royal Air Wing Selection
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

    Cessna Bird Dog
    Douglas Devastator

went into town today, into the local toy store, ypu know the sort they don't usually sell model kits. But they had a Revell F18, it would have been rude not to buy one so I did.

Don't know what I'll do with it but somehow i got it.......oh well  ;D  ;D
Everything looks better with the addition of British Roundels!

Unusual one from ebay today. A chap had built a 1/72nd Lancaster kit(Revell?) which includes 4 x fully detailed Merlins. He hadn't fitted these for whatever reason, so he was selling them off in pairs: I got one pair, but someone just pipped me to the other.

Various ideas for these, some highly unconventional..... :wacko:

Another bumper crop from ebay, mostly due to on-time, late and re-delivered items all arriving at once. (Still no sign of my B-17 though, which has been outside my door once but which the pilchards now seem to have lost  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:)

Matchbox Meatbox NF11/12/14 No.4. I now promise to stop buying these, even if they are (relatively) cheap....

Heller 1/72nd MS.406, for Spanish Civil War duties,

Otaki 1/144th MiG-23 Flipper (i.e. the scaled-up Ye-152A "twin-engined MiG-21" erroneously ID'd as a MiG-23 for a time). Pure nostaligia buy this one, since it was one of the last kits I built as a kid before giving up. Then again, I do have a 1/144th Flogger, so it might make an interesting "double".....


and the piéce de resistance:

Revell Special Edition 1/200th scale Boeing SST Supersonic Clipper: TWO 18" models in one box, one in supersonic cruise, one in landing mode. Some buggers are asking £45 for this kit on ebay: I got it for £13 including postage  :mellow:. Whiff possibilities? Where to start.... :wub: :wub: :wub:
